I think it is called chocolate silk or chocolate cream pie with merigne topping. Please excuse the spelling.
If you have this please pm me with the recipe.
This is my chocolate pie, it was my Mothers' and Grandmothers'

Iron Skillet Chocolate Pie from Tennesse

1 cup sugar
2 tbsp, (rounded) flour
2 tbsp. (rounded) cocoa I use less as I like milk chocolate I don't round
1 tbsp. (rounded) butter
2 eggs, separated
1 c. milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 pie shell, baked
Mix sugar, flour and cocoa. Melt butter in iron skillet; add sugar mixture and mix lightly. Combine beaten egg yolks and milk; add
to mixture, stirring constantly. Cook slowly until thick; add vanilla and blend well. Pour in pie shell; cover with stiffly beaten egg whites. Brown in oven.
